Great! So now we'll have fake air cleaners AND fake carbs...

Oh, what the heck. No more worrying about needle sizes and rough starts in the winter. As long as the next step isn't something like coming up with an electric BA/SM and hiding the motor behind a fake parallel twin to retain the "classic" look, I'll be okay with it, I'm all about improving the product, but I wish they'd come up with a new design that did away with all the fakery to hide the components. It just gives other folks reason to de-ride our bikes for being just a modern copy of a classic instead of them being classics in their own right. Am I being too hard here? Am I making any sense?

One thing, though. Brent will have to come up with a different chip for the EFI logic that will increase the HP/torque range beyond the factory settings. I'm sure there will be more to squeeze out past the factory settings.
